Yeah, making up rules in the heat of the moment just to shut someone up is gonna make bad rules that deserve malicious compliance. Dead right.

Wise person: “Those who do not know history’s mistakes are doomed to repeat them.”

Actual Nazis: Great idea. Let’s burn some books.

But I’m scared of Monad transformers and lenses. Can’t I just use elm? Elm is so perfect, so pure, so very very pure. And so pretty. And so robust. And so instantaneous to compile, and with such helpful error messages. Come to me, haskell programmer, you’ll never want to leave. Never leave… Always elm… Lovely lovely elm…

You can tell that they find the answers absurd and the WAT memes are universally funny.

The more time you spend listening to nasty racist liars like Farage, the more of a nasty racist schmuck you’ll become.

I thank you in advance for your service to the country.

No, he’s a lying toerag. He says that Trump won but he thinks ordinary people are stupid and will believe him because he’s so blokey. Turd.

Thank you for being on the Internet.

That was helpful, thanks. I’m very much looking for insight, explanation and experiences.

If I’ve grasped what you’re saying (and please re-steer me if not), the male gaze is a kind of societal expectation that women would present themselves in certain ways to walk the tightrope of some sort of impossible-to-attain universal male approval, and where women are harassed on the one hand for for not pleasing male eyes and on the other hand, harassed for pleasing male eyes - an obviously lose-lose situation. As such then, this male gaze would exist in the way some men behave towards women and in the head space this takes up in the minds of women who have been repeatedly hit with these expectations.

I’m not versed enough in that industry to speak authoritatively on it.

In the tax avoidance industry? No, me neither.

I’m not sure why you lend such credence to stuff churned out by people with such obvious and clear self-interest in the assertions they’re making. “Grown-ups taking over running the country from incompetents and disaster capitalists spells trouble for the filthy rich who may well leave the country” is such a well-worn and nakedly self-serving line I don’t know why you take it so seriously. Like, their whole thing, literally everything they do is to reduce tax for the ultra wealthy. Of course they’re not going to be keen that the economy-crashing “reduce taxes at the top end” party are leaving government, they might have to work even harder than before to exploit a shrinking pool of loopholes. I lost my tiny violin, so I’m all out of sob-story music for them.

I wanted to learn more about women’s perspective on this. Sometimes my “don’t be a dick” plan needs more detail, and being more aware of what kind of behaviour is problematic might steer me better. I’ve heard the phrase male gaze but I don’t think I fully understand what is meant by it, and I feel your question may point to and illuminate a kind of discrimination that I want to avoid.

So plenty of FUD from a firm that… Helps wealthy tax avoiders avoid tax. OK.

Don’t judge others.

Love your neighbour, and this means anyone in need, especially ones from ethnicities your nation shuns.

Look after the poor, the widows and the foreigners.

Pay your taxes.

But seriously, number one and number two are love God and love your neighbour, according to Jesus, and he got really really cross about the religious leaders making up all kinds of rules for everyone else to follow, and for making the temple all about the money.

He also said that you can’t love God and money.

It’s just not a very Republican kind of line of morality, you can see why they’re rejecting it.

Putin’s stupid little poodle.

Trump is so stupid that he has no idea how stupid he sounds.

It’s definitely freedom. Freedom for Conservatives to tell everyone what they can and can’t do in their own homes.

Sorry to look twice, but wow, nice cock, bro.

I took care of our young kids for a fortnight “instead of working” when my wife was rushed to hospital. It was far more exhausting than doing the day job. I don’t know how single parents cope at all.

Cohen did time as a first time convict for pretty much the same stuff, only less so, but no, I don’t think Trump will do time.

Inventing controversial non-solutions to non-problems in order to avoid discussing solutions to real problems that they themselves have caused or worsened, which would all, in some way, involve giving money to non-rich people or spending money on non-rich people, which they see as an egregious waste of money.
